Shakira models with cheetahs?

The 36-year-old pop star is flanked by two menacing big cats in an arid location. She has showcased her daring side by posing in a low-cut, plunging burgundy dress showing off her slender leg through the sheer material. But it's unlikely the cheetahs were present when she posed for the shot, reports thesun.co.uk.

The ad is being used to promote her new fragrance Wild Elixir, the follow-up to her 2012 perfume Shakira Elixir.

Columbian star Shakira has quickly reclaimed her figure following the January birth of her first child, son Milan, with boyfriend Gerard Pique.
